Chromecast

I was not able to find any kind of forum search function so I'm not sure if this was answered before… anyway are there any plans to support Google Chromecast?
It is working from browser, but it would be nice if it would also work from app.

At this point, there is no native support for Chromecast via the Funimation Apps.
You can only view shows on Funimation via the "Cast a Chrome tab" feature at the moment.
There are no optimizations that would aid in usability.
A better 10-foot UI optimized for devices like TVs is something I am eager to see in the next iterations of the Funimation Apps and perhaps even on the main website!

I'd love chromecast support, but i doubt it will ever arrive on Funimation, too much of a niche market.

As I've said many times in my life, "ever" is a VERY, VERY, long time. :)

Keep in mind Roku has "only" about 8 million units sold, and while the only word we have on Chromecast is that it has sold "millions" (and frankly, 2 million would technically be "millions"), for all we know, it could be rivaling the numbers of the Roku userbase when Funimation committed to that app.

I had made a post with this before the forum revamp in the evs section. so im going to chime in here in support. it works on my laptop but i would kill to have the android app support chromecast. that feature makes netflix amazing for me. and i would love to see you guys take advantage of it.

I realize its probably an old thread..

But to my knowledge, and as of this date, google chrome, does not work with chromecast on the ipad. You simply don't have the option unless the PLAYER on the website offers that ability. (Yes, Netflix works, even chrunchyroll, a handful of others do work)

You cant install/enable extentions of any sort on ipad/iphone devices in Chrome either.
